About Me
David “Historian” DeWald is a Community Manager and Social Media guy.
Historian has done a lot of interesting things over the years; working in fast food, mass market retail, auto sales, computer equipment sales, technical trainer, web developer, graphic designer, sous chef and strip club bouncer. All of this prepared him for working with people on the internet. With over 12 years of experience with working with web based communities starting with early fan sites for the game “Creatures” to the fan site that grew up to be “Planet Dungeon Siege“, he brings his unique knowledge of social interactions to everything he does.
His love of gaming and gadgets goes much further back.
